I’m looking forward to sharing how The Global Classroom Project has developed and grown over the past few months, as I witness global dreams becoming global reality. This project is an amazing example of how social media, web 2.0, and global collaborative projects can change the lives and work of hundreds of teachers and students around the world.

I look forward to sharing what’s happening at #GlobalEd11. I hope to see you there!

  1. This sounds like an awesome presentation. When I was at ISTE this year, I had the chance to talk to a lot of representatives from many, many schools that were using edtech to allow their students to collaborate with other students around the world. So cool! I can’t wait for global collaboration in schools to be the norm.

    I’ll do what I can to help spread the word on your presentation. Thanks!

    • Many thanks John. One day, we hope that every classroom will have the opportunity to connect and collaborate globally. This project provides an opportunity & supportive environment to bring this to the wider education community.
